Sunhawk 12/09/19 9:42:20 AM #1:	DDD was a pretty bad level, to be quite honest. Not dreadful. But bad. And there were already a couple of water levels, one of which was great fun. Tiny Huge Island was dreadful. Great concept, very poorly executed. Not much fun to play, awful graphics where the water just stopped 10 metres from the island, and the gusts of wind were cheap as fuck. Every other level was worth including, and some were excellent, e.g. Tick Tock Clock. --- It has been 0 days since something interesting happened.
